How to Install TWRP and Root Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+

Install TWRP and Root Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+ (Exynos)

Download the TWRP recovery image from above, according to your device.

Copy no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip and Magisk-v12.0.zip files to your phone’s external storage (microSD card). In case you are not using a memory card, you can copy these 2 files to your Galaxy S8 later.

Unzip the ODIN zip file and open the extracted folder.

Double-click the Odin3.exe file to launch ODIN.

Now switch off your device.

Press and hold Bixby + Volume down buttons and then press the Power button.

The phone will boot into download mode quite quickly.

When in Download mode, connect your phone to the PC with a USB cable.

If you have the drivers installed, your device should be detected, and you should see Added!! in the ODIN Log box.

Along with that, the ID:COM port should be highlighted in blue.

Now click on the AP tab in the ODIN window and select the TWRP recovery.tar file that you downloaded for your device.

Click the Options tab on Odin and uncheck the Auto Reboot option.

Now click on Start and wait for the TWRP installation process to finish.

If the flashing completes successfully, you will see the box above the ID:COM port light up green with a PASS message.

You can now disconnect the USB cable.

Having installed TWRP, it is time to root your Galaxy S8 by flashing the latest Magisk via recovery. Therefore, you need to boot your phone into the recovery mode. Now press and hold the Volume Down + Bixby + Power buttons at the same time and immediately swap to Volume Up as soon as the screen goes blank/black while still pressing the Home and Power keys. Keep the 3 keys pressed until you get into TWRP Recovery.

Select Keep /system RO. Tap Wipe > Format Data and type “yes”.

Then go to Reboot > Recovery.

Tap the Install button in TWRP, navigate to the location where you copied the no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip and select it. Swipe the installation confirmation slider when prompted. (If you copied the file to the internal storage, you won’t find these files because you’ve already wiped your phone’s data. So, connect your S8 to the computer and copy the no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip and Magisk-v12.0.zip files to the device).

Now go back to the main menu in TWRP and select Reboot > Recovery.

When the device reboots into TWRP, tap the Install option, navigate to the Magisk-v12.0.zip and install it.

Magisk will now be installed on your device and it will be rooted the next time you boot it up.

When the flashing is complete, tap Reboot > system.
